From my experience with tattoes, diff. artists give slightly diff. instructions for taking care of a new tat. The one me and the hubby go to told us this:
To wash it softly with soap and water after the bandage comes off initially and let it dry out that day.
For three days after, put a THIN layer of A & D ointment on twice a day. When washing it, just pat it dry.
After 3 days, use Lubriderm once or twice a day if needed until tat is completely healed.
This has worked great for our tats.
